REFLECTION ON THE CODE OF ETHICS OF PROFESSIONAL TEACHERS
…CONSIDERING YOU HAVE MADE YOUR OWN VIDEO-LESSON
These video-lessons show the improvement of my teaching in 3 key areas as a
reflection and continues upholding of my duties and responsibilities stipulated
in the resolution number 435 s., 1997 or otherwise known as the Code of Ethics
for Professional Teachers:
1. Article IV section 2 states that teachers shall uphold the highest possible
standard of teaching and quality of education. These video-lessons are
proof of my hard work and dedication to adapt in the continuing changes
in the paradigm of education especially now that the delivery of
instructions in school is hampered by the pandemic. This shows my
reflection that the conventional way of teaching will not help reach the
children who are in remote learning and thus, these kinds of teachings, a
video-lesson was developed. This also shows that I am responsive to the
needs of my learners in any circumstances and is adaptable to any
changes.
2. Article IV section 3 states that teachers must participate in continues
professional education. The video-lesson that I made for my learners are
based on the series of seminars and workshops that I have attended. This
continues professional development has impacted greatly on my teaching
in the digital platforms. I have considered many things so that I could help
my learners learn even when we are not meeting face-to-face. Say for
instance the use of graphics and words, the language to use and the level
of activity and goals for students to accomplish. My continues professional
skilling and re-skilling has a great impact on helping my students learn.
3. Article VIII section 9 states that teachers shall extend needed assistance
to solve students’ difficulties. These video-lessons are developed to aid the
learners and help them accomplish the tasks at hand and to understand
the concepts. This shows that my teaching practice is constantly reviewed
and improved and ensure that my students are at the center. These video
lessons have great impact on my students learning when we have no
opportunity to meet. These videos served as their guide and teacher in
performing their duties as students.
